January 2024 FIDE NI Rating Report

By FIDE National Arbiter Brendan Jamison Congratulations to 15 more players gaining a FIDE rating in the 1st January 2024 rating list.

Many players have been asking about the FIDE rating boost, this is now scheduled for 1st March 2024 so if you haven’t got a FIDE classic, rapid or blitz rating yet, definitely enter some competitions during January and February. We have plenty coming up across all time controls, with the Williamson Shield weekender on Friday 19th to Sunday 21st January. There’s also 1 Rapid and 3 FIDE blitz events at Bangor Chess Club during January.
